Bike Rack Solution for When Towing Pop Up Camper
Question:
I am thinking about getting this for my 2012 Forester for when we are pulling our popup camper. Just wondering how far back the rack extends to see if I would run into issues with the camper.

I have a solution that would work great to allow you to carry a couple bikes while towing your pop up camper but we can't recommend you use a trunk rack while towing as there would most likely be clearance issues. Instead a really great and easy solution would be the Lipper Jack-it part # LC429756 which mounts to the same mount as your jack and gives you an easy way to carry bikes while towing.
I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
